Abstract
In this paper, we analyze a multi-carrier (MC) system employing combined space-time-frequency (STF) codes and an iterative receiver with extrinsic information transfer (EXIT) charts and bit-error rate plots. As STF codes, we examine orthogonal space-time block codes, cyclic delay diversity and discontinuous Doppler diversity as well as combinations of these codes. Moreover, we show that EXIT charts are not always a suitable tool to analyze the performance of iterative receivers for STF coded MC systems even with differential code doping or spreading.
